Sometimes I forget that everyone else on this website is, in fact, a human being and that the fact that people will actually willingly interact with me isn't some kind of joke or me being crazy
Sometimes I just forget I'm a person, you know? I kinda just get lost in everything constantly happening around me and then sometimes it just hits me like a ton of bricks and it's just like
I'm going to die one day and nobody is going to remember me
And sometimes all it takes for this existential horror to arise is just seeing a vein under the skin
The idea of death is both horrifying and fascinating, isn't it? The idea of non-existence is just impossible for our miserable brains to comprehend.
Even if I do establish real relationships with people I can just never...? Feel it
I mean yeah I feel emotions and crap so it's not anything like that but it's like... I don't feel any sort of connection to people, like, at all. I mean, yeah, if I like you I like you but you're ultimately disposable and if you piss me off I can and will get over it in less than 48 hours. There's never anything that people say should be there.
There's never some sort of feeling of belonging or like "I feel connected to these people, these are my people" or a sense of friend like
Now there's my sister, granted, but she's a special case because we've been through Some Shit™ together so that's just that
Maybe, now that I think about it, that's why I'm so desperate for romance. To see if I can form some kind of deeper bond with anyone other than a family member.
But, of course, what makes me think this is a thing that isn't normal? I suppose it could be.
But it just doesn't feel right. I should be feeling something more than a vague and passive fondness, shouldn't I?
Maybe I am just bat-shit crazy!
